- a metering unit For filling the at least one sample chamber, a metering unit is provided, from which samples are introduced directly into a recess of the transport device in exactly the same amount. In addition to providing always the same amount, it is also essential to distribute the substance in the sample chamber itself when preparing the test sample. It is hereby considered that on the one hand a uniform thickness is set and on the other hand a uniform compaction of the substance takes place.
- suitably thin test samples are prepared in the respective sample chamber in this way.
- particularly sample chambers are suitable which are formed from flat cylindrical recesses in the transport device itself. At the top and bottom side, the sample chambers preferably consist of material which is transparent to the measuring radiation.

- the second station with at least one measuring device for an analysis of the sample chamber located in the sample chamber may be a ball measuring system with an integrating sphere in the form of a hemisphere with cover element or consisting of two half-shells photometer sphere.
- the cover element may for example be designed plan and have holes or other feedthroughs for optical fibers. These holes serve as passage points for coupling light radiation into the interior of the measuring device.
- a spherical measuring system can be used as a spherical light collector made of quartz or sapphire crystal formed and, except for certain passage points for light radiation, be completely mirrored to achieve a light-gathering effect.
- aspheric forms are conceivable.
- the emerging from the ends of the optical fiber light beam hits the mirrored inside of the ball measuring system and is reflected from there back to a collecting mirror, which decouples light through a non-mirrored window of the photometer.
- the photometer sphere is a supplementary unit to the detector.
- process interfaces are set up which can be connected to existing data management solutions on the market.
- intelligent process interfaces with integrated fiber optic spectral sensors can be created, which are suitable for direct use in production lines.
- the spherical measuring system is suitable, for example, for measurements by means of NIR spectroscopy, in which the sample is illuminated from many sides via the integration sphere.
- the mirrored inside integration sphere ensures a homogeneous light distribution on and in the sample.
- InGaAs detectors with high sensitivity are suitable for signal acquisition.
- data records with known content or known concentrations of the substance to be analyzed are prepared in advance, as is generally the case with infrared spectroscopy.
- measuring systems for UV applications may also be considered.

- An online process control in the food industry or in chemical and pharmaceutical products is also conceivable.
- the emptying of the sample chamber takes place, if appropriate by means of a suction device into one or more remaining containers.
- the remaining containers can also be exchangeable for each sample, so that the series of measurements can be reconstructed in their time sequence and assigned to a batch on which the measurement sample is based.
- the particular advantage of the invention is that the sequence of an analysis is fully automated. A manual intervention in the course of the analysis usually does not need it anymore.
- the device according to the invention enables a continuously timed analysis running at short intervals.
- the dosing unit the sample substances can be fed directly.
- the quality control of the sample material can be integrated into a production process.
- the measured values deviate from the predefined setpoint values, it may be possible to intervene in a production process without delay due to an appropriate assignment of the sample substance to the respective batch.
- the transport device may comprise a turntable in which a sample chamber is integrated or more sample chambers are integrated.
- the turntable preferably has so many sample chambers, how clock cycles are present in the stations.
- a first sample for example milk powder, cereals or otherwise pourable or flowable goods, is introduced into a first sample chamber by means of a sample feed.
- the turntable is further rotated by a certain angular extent and initiated the next clock.
- the filled sample chamber enters the integration sphere, which is preferably supported on the plane of the turntable from the side.
- the integration sphere then, for example, a transmission measurement.
- the analysis also covers the interior of a good to be measured, so for example, the interior of cereal grains for determining the protein content.
- the sample is removed from the sample chamber, for example by aspiration, and the sample chamber is cleaned so that it is again available for the acquisition of another measurement sample.
- the turntable is preferably configured with an equal angular pitch for the sample chambers and rotatably arranged about a vertical axis. Samples may be transferred sequentially from a first station in which the turntable is filled to a second station with a sample analyzing apparatus and to a third station for emptying and cleaning. With another clock, the cleaned sample chamber is then transferred again to the first station for refilling. This is followed by another cycle in which all required work steps for the analysis can be carried out simultaneously.
- the at least one sample chamber can be integrated on the outer edge of the turntable.
- the turntable is rotated by a drive motor via a central axis.
- the sample chambers are located as far as possible from the drive unit in a region in which sufficient space is available for further devices for filling, measuring and emptying the sample chambers.
- several sample chambers with an optimum receiving volume can be made flat.
- a stripping device for achieving a defined amount of sample can be arranged between the first station and the second station.
- a wiper removes excess sample material and may also compress the sample.
- it is sufficient to turn the turntable under an arm guided directly along its upper side.
- the arm can extend across a sample chamber in the radial direction on the turntable and be held outside, so that it sweeps over the top of the turntable and subtracts the surplus sample material with its leading edge.
- the stripping device can have a blade-like shape.
- the Abziehklinge is arranged so that this sample material sweeps into the recess of the sample chamber and thereby compresses and removes excess sample material, so that a total of a reproducible, exact layer thickness is produced.
- the second station may consist of several measuring devices, which are arranged one behind the other in the direction of rotation.
- several measuring methods can also be used, for example for determining the moisture, protein and fat content of products.
- other optical measuring devices for controlling a correctly filled sample chamber may be upstream.
- a further measuring device for analyzing the sample quantity located in a sample chamber can be arranged. In this clock, the thus prepared sample by means of a detector or a camera to see whether the desired sample thickness has been set and a satisfactory sample preparation has taken place.
- the at least one sample chamber can be completely formed within the turntable.
- the sample chambers then close with the top or bottom of the turntable, so that no protruding projections are present.
- This facilitates the turning of the turntable through the interior of an integration sphere.
- the sample substances can be introduced as a particularly thin layer. It is envisaged that in addition to a uniform thickness of the layer and a uniform compression of the substance leads to a homogeneous distribution.
- suitably thin test samples are prepared in the respective sample chamber in this way.
- the interchangeable inserts are formed as simple plane-parallel plates of different thickness, which of course are transparent to the radiation used for the measurement. By simply inserting these plates, the depth of the sample chambers and thus the layer thickness can be reduced. Typical layer thicknesses are in the range of up to 5 mm.
- the bottom of the bottom and / or the top of a lid of the sample chamber with the underside of the turntable or the top of the turntable are aligned.
- the at least one sample chamber in the first station and / or second station and / or third station may be gastight. be closable.
- further measuring devices may be arranged with gas-conducting connections to the sample chamber.

- conventional sealing measures can be provided.
- the at least one sample chamber may have a ground area and / or lid area permeable to optical radiation. Particularly preferred are optically transparent silicate glasses.
- a sample chamber can optionally be covered with a cover element after filling and before transport to the second station.
- the transport device can be arranged in a housing under predeterminable environmental conditions.
